The rental trailers weigh a heck of a lot, empty. You can use a
lightweight trailer, I have done so with my Syncros. I bought one on
sale from HF, put it together, added wood sides, good to go.  Keep
speeds down, use 2nd gear on major hills, take it easy. No fridges or
tall items, tie everything well and double.
